Obverse description Black intaglio printing on an orange-tinted underprint; the issuer title 'THE DOMINION BANK' arches across the top register, with two oval portrait vignettes flanking a large central guilloche medallion bearing the denomination numeral '50' — the left vignette depicting the President and the right the General Manager, each rendered in formal attire. The place and date of issue 'TORONTO, 1ST FEBY. 1931' appear below the central medallion, while 'FIFTY DOLLARS' is set in bold letterpress along the lower margin, with the printer's imprint below.
